egyptians are deciding the fate of a brand new constitution which has divided the nation and turned the streets in the country's key cities into battlefields a chorus of critics have pushed for the referendums delays saying that the islamic law document is flawed and not representative of the population base reporter true . after three weeks of political turmoil that seen mass rallies against the president's armed also bloody scenes in the streets of egypt's major cities overnight the military apparently beefed up security at the polling stations ready for people to come and vote so they have course have been called in by the president to secure the nation during this time of political unrest and the referendum we expect are hundreds of thousands of police officers and soldiers in the streets today ensuring that the scenes are calm this comes after violent scenes yesterday on friday alexandra egypt's second city which saw clashes between rival protests creates. so it is

a court of the constitution those against it including groups wielding machetes. also. around about nineteen injured and possible dead we haven't had that confirmed yet this of course follows several weeks worth of violence seats in the streets of cairo the referendum is actually being held across two days is there not a sufficient number of judges to supervise the process this the opposition forces say is a major problem and could open up the referendum to vote rigging in addition civil society groups here questioning how that is possible for them to observe the elections to for electoral fraud since the head of the constituent assembly who drafted the constitution is also the head of the national human rights council he will be overseeing the observation of the polling stations the constitution itself is a major point of contention also for opposition forces they have said that it is written by islamist dominated constituent assembly of these somebody when this mass will

cross by liberal leftist and church and therefore it will only enforce a religious state it also they said would impose a presidential dictatorship and neglect key rights and freedoms of expression so this constitution they say should be rewritten the constituent assembly should be reforged so we'll have to see with the results of the referendum the future of egypt journalist and middle east analyst stuff that ponting says the vote is unlikely to reflect the real public. morsi is not showing any signs of flexibility he's not showing any signs of building consensus he is shown to be a very stubborn person regardless of the outcome of the referendum the scene in egypt right now it's indicative there is going to be him as. playing with the results there is already reports about money and sustenance is

being given to poor people to encourage them to go out and vote favorably with yes for the constitution and on the other side the egyptians are still divided into different groups and the vision of the voters are not going as it should have been going so it's not really representative of the nation's women or of the concerns that should have been existing turkey's taking the chance to abandon an old friendship to satisfy its own and that. helps washington to keep the times of syria's president as somehow being to win western support and a possible third hold in syria but turns a blind eye to time of conflict but got the details and. it's one of the worst school shootings in u.s. history twenty six people gunned down any u.s. primary school in connecticut twenty of them young children pupils have tried to

hide from the killing classrooms and closets but they bloodbath and only when he turned the gun on himself and woman believed to be his mother was also found dead at her house and he's going to check out reports now on the massacre of innocent life. there's still lots of questions as to what happened at that elementary school in connecticut the shooter has not been officially identified at this point but according to various reports it was adam lanza the twenty year old who went into his mother's kindergarten class she was a teacher at that school and wiped out the entire class twenty children were killed in the carnage eighteen children died at the scene at the hospital those were five year olds six year olds small children the shooter also targeted and killed six adults and unless his mother the teacher was also found dead in her home. the school the suspect that. is the suspected shooter had three guns on him as he went into the school two handguns and one semiautomatic weapon all reportedly registered

to adam lanza's mother a witness said there must have been one hundred rounds fired after killing all these people at unless they reportedly shot himself there has been a number of horrifying shootings at schools in the u.s. in the past but never has there been a rampage that killed this many small children in two thousand and seven a student killed thirty two people at virginia tech we of course remember the columbine massacre in colorado where two students struck and killed thirteen people and injured twenty four but the children killed in connecticut were very very young we heard president obama delivered tearful speech this friday but nevertheless the white house has pretty much dodged questions on its gun policy and those are questions on many people's minds right now but the president does say it's time to take meaningful action to prevent a mess across like this from happening again but what action he did not specify is the fact of the matter is that getting a gun is fairly easy in the u.s.

adam lanza's mother apparently had no problem purchasing and registering story guns one of them a semi automatic weapon and it's a powerful deadly weapon one of the policy goals of president obama was a ban on assault weapons but is thought to be a losing. proposition for any politician in the u.s. to really seriously consider seriously take on the issue attempts to regulate guns inevitably hit a wall and that wall is the second amendment the right of the people to bear arms some states here do have controls over gun possession but again very limited controls the state of illinois for example used to have a ban on concealed weapons but this week a federal court ruling struck down the country's last such poor vision as unconstitutional and ordered the state to craft a law allowing it so much for gun control in the us the state of wisconsin passed out its ban on concealed weapons last year and it seems there is no way of arguing against the amendment even despite these absolutely horrifying and recurring

incidents. so the tragedy once again triggered a wave of criticism that getting your hands on a weapon in america is to easy oh she's liz wahl went to the white house to stand on to guns ronnie. many people are taking their concerns to the front of the white house as you can see about one hundred people are gathered here holding signs holding candles trying to make their voices heard saying that now is the time to talk about gun control in the u.s. we spoke to some of the protesters here's what they had to say today we saw a roomful of kindergartners slaughtered by a guy who never should have gotten a gun. if our president can't talk about it the issue now as a father of two daughters young daughters i think it's time for him for a gut check in it's there's no more and no more excuses anymore this should not have happened we should have measures in place before this to prevent people from accessing guns who are not fit to hold them also in my opinion i don't think

something that is military grade as an assault rifle i don't think that should be in the hands of anybody it's not a toy and we can't keep our teachers and our children and our school administrators safe and it very day we can't keep people who are walking down the streets safe then that should be changed and to resign ourselves to the saying that this is a problem that has a solution is defeatist and we should we should take this on and change what we did hear from press secretary jay carney earlier this morning he said today is not the day to be talking about gun control we also heard a very emotional speech from president obama sending his condolences to the victims to the family is in newtown connecticut he did not talk about the issue of guns or gun control but protesters here say if today is not the day in the wake of this very tragic mass shooting they don't know when that time will and washington lives wall arts. three a day for the first time in cia treatment of a time

a suspect has been found to be told that your fate would have throws its weight behind the chinese citizen was wrongly detained and sodomized by members of the u.s. intelligence agency is coming your way later this hour. an artist was arrested for putting up posters critical of drone usage all over new york city the poster show a menacing drone shooting a missile at innocent children with the words drones protection when you least expect it written at the bottom these posters definitely reflect a lot of americans fears that a big brother skynet will completely eliminate the very concept of privacy and free speech so to prove that americans live in a free country without any government spying the n.y.p.d. hunted down the anonymous artist and arrested him for expressing himself having

arrested him at his residence they charged him with fifty six counts of criminal possession of a forged instrument grand larceny possession of stolen property and weapons possession for having a deadly terrorist weapon and unloaded twenty two caliber pistol although being in jail won't be pleasant perhaps arzt s m a t actually in the end it got what he wanted he proved to the world that big brother surveilled him and arrested him all for throwing up a few posters looks like he proved his point but that's just my opinion. well. science technology innovation all the latest m l m m's from around russia we've dumped the future covered.

if. you use them to see. destruction without the seen. what could be just ruins. saved by a great sacrifice. and restored by huge efforts. a remarkable reminder of courage and selflessness. putin is a. people. to haul the russian aside.

more news today violence is once again flared up. and these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. shining corporations are the day . it's got to have your wits the you as germany and the netherlands are deploying patriot missiles manned by four hundred american troops in turkey next to syria as a northern border officiate asked whether defense against possible cross border aggression the missiles range will extend deep into syrian territory. said why turkey is so eager to contain its former friend. he may have treated his command

bridge for an apartment in his done ball but returned admiral turkey turkey still keeps tabs on his country's foreign policy and he doesn't like what he sees like many turkish patriots the admiral believes his country is second fighting common sense and domestic concerns from western interests. turkey is looking at the middle east through america's eyes not for a purely turkish perspective for example with syria turkey claims it wants to see democracy in syria but look who it's working with saudi arabia qatar and their democratic credit is wanting. forget the zero problems with neighbor's rule which in corral has prided itself on for many decades critics now see turkey as dancing to one nation's. place was burned very kill people but that does not suffice. for results which the us can

utilize afterwards because you in the. foot in both countries use social strata some people internalize us policy and represent us in the countries that have been invaded and so on this is very tricky comes in geographically and culturally it's a great base camp for the likes of the us and nato to take a foothold in their anti us and ambitions it was just two years ago that turkey was calling bashar lost a brother and voting against sanctions on iran its relatively recent change of heart however may not have everything to do with turkey's desire to appease the west and may indeed be part of the plan by turkish officials to become regional if not global major players. has.

been but it was some other years ago. it was true on. syria was. land but now syria is. member of united nations. independent state. turkey has any rights. to intervene. in policy internal issues there is a conflict for thirty years you think to stick with the courses and every day. people young people. from both sides so. if i were. well she did turkey then think of syria or. yet turkish officials seem to skirt the issue of their internal problems and instead turn their attention elsewhere syria the case in point but the likes of retired admiral in turkey

believe the turkish ship is a person one should its present commanders continue on their prudent course even though it is them who. has the christmas spirit becoming an obsession to buy as much as you point out later. go back to church to read the bible to find free. remember what the holiday is supposed to be for i just think people should think that every year to be the best christmas ever. join or a half minutes later in the program that she hit the streets of new. that's late but now britain's and biting off less that but they can sure it seems as the cost of health of foods move them from the reach of beyond the reach of many people food prices that have gone up by a certain just fine years living many families stuck on cheap prepackaged meals.

reports now on how standard shopping lists are quickly becoming a luxury. do you look at what you're putting in your shopping basket health conscious customers might want to call up on their fruit and vege but what if that's getting too expensive for families in the u.k. the cost of their weekly shop has gone up by over a third over the past five years and it's set to get more expensive still among the healthier fresh meat so you can find chicken breasts for five ninety nine per kilogram and you've got your frozen process retailing at one twenty nine in some cases now if you're a struggling household with lots of mouths to feed it's a no brainer britain is now in the midst of a nutritional recession to go hand in hand with the financial one over a million children in the u.k. growing without a daily healthy meal now the coalition government provides free fruit and vege to schools and they supplement those on the lower income but it looks like the cheaper

meal deals are often more appealing than the government health warnings health campaign to say it's time for the government to several new plan to get britain struggling households to acquire not just the taste but also the means for a healthier diet there's a lot more waiting for you at our web site including a little look at those whose love for animals goes too far on the german government also is a little behind this duality debate over just a news moral compass is pointing in the right direction. and not afraid to get dirty to move good later i don't know man in russia dives into rubber to retrieve the makeup accidentally it's for a way. a leap of faith online. for

the first time the cia has been found guilty of torture a european court has ruled that the rights of a german citizen who was mistaken for terrorism by u.s. agents were violated hunted al masri says he was beaten and sodomized staff have being abducted and secretly flown to afghanistan back in two thousand and three the u.s. is now being pursued for an apology and compensation author and historian doug valentine sounds that this is unlikely to happen as the cia stands above the law. those cia officers there ever will be will ever. preserve a prison term even in you know in states of convicted of a crime these people are simply above the law the only thing that the cia dogs is to conduct illegal activities which is why it's above the law it's business doing

things that are illegal so the fact that it's. europe or asia or south america or any place to do it legal there is a call for regime of what it does this you know it's not appropriate all of. those things without prior authorization from congress the president is the national security officer everything that goes is a policy. christmas is a time when shops hope to do some brisk business but he's resident because if the festive spirit is turning into a shopaholic protection. why have the holidays become such hellish days this week let's talk about that it's a commercial thing now everyone son to spend money it's not about what it really should be about how did that happen is it the media telling us to buy buy buy absolutely it's everyone with their sales and absolutely i live on what people buy

you know and i'm an independent sales rep so i depend on it so you're happy with this christmas i'm happy with this christmas i sell luxury goods as long as people keep buying into a happy holiday that's it a way to stop that would be to go back to church to read the bible and to find faith and to remember what the holiday is supposed to be for what about people of other religions and it is there any saving for them i said i said to find religion . is there saving for them i believe in christianity but i think it's important that whether it's christiane to be or not that you have morals and values based on religious faith do you think there's a war in christmas no i don't think there's a war on christmas i just think people shouldn't think that every year has to be the best christmas ever is that what we do we set our expectations too high think we do i think that we should just enjoy it that each year should be a nice christmas with a couple of presents maybe full of press that's right along with the feeling of

safety in community with holidays holidays also remind people believe or not that's just my opinion holidays remind people of their own mortality that we're not going to be around here very much longer and our lives are very short. because we tend to remember the people who have gone on the holidays as well and that's why we p.c. the holidays we just want to feel safe we want to feel like i'm extending my time here a little bit more and i want you to believe what i believe and maybe as someone other than someone else's beliefs makes us feel better and that's exactly how we take an intro dose of approach and this is not as much about. shopping this year as all the rest of our fifty nine years the sixty of you are going to be a little bit different how you can do it differently. i have to say but he was going to be a phrasebook. just watching people make christmas and calling it a day like whether or not the world has lost its holiday spirit the bottom line is it wouldn't hurt any of us to take a look inside to find our own private reason to celebrate this season.

and that saves his breaking the set in a few minutes. in this remote siberians in which people still sing the songs which russians sang in the middle ages and they cherish the practice will set up church before the seventeenth century the old believers here is sign the area are conservative community they're known as the simi skia a word which refers to family. the debate believe me there yet again i feel right. now i'm the first to tell you that. i.

people here are happy to show their way of life to tourists and to show them how to dance in the local star. use of prayer and the girl needs to watch her legs don't go up too much during the dance she must be a modest. seventeen year old nanda is from the same village she now studies in the city and dances at a club. she puts on her costume and the traditional amber necklace only when she comes to visit her grandmother. ok you know that. i didn't ask on time for her dad says because i want to keep up to date with this morning world but still i would like to have came to my background how my ancestors layered and this is my treasure their attachment to the church brought not just and

sistas to this remote blend east deflate by call more than two hundred fifty years ago they were exiled in persecuted for not. i mean to the orthodox who do sting washing the sixteen hundreds they wanted to maintain their time honored rituals they all believe is still baal and cross themselves with two fingers not with three as they do in modern orthodox churches in russia and never knew when praying but this fall this ag says it's not so much the rituals they cherish as the moral principles he does not approve of what is doing is akin to an old believe a woman must never show had naked legs and because this thing started spoiled during the soviet union. was more and more young people leaving so big city this year is the old believers culture it could be imperiled nowadays young people prefer urban life to devote their lives to agriculture but it's not necessary to

leave it inside israel has to remember that and try to think that you know your plans to continue her studies abroad the grandmother says wherever she goes as long as the jews are fresh in her memory so is the culture. you live on one hundred thirty three possible for food i should try it because you know how fabulous bad luck. i mean. i know that i've seen really messed up. in the all original person. at the. worst if you're going to go to white house to have a. radio guy minister of a cricket. what you call for about fifteen years you've never seen anything like

that i'm cold. hello i'm abby martin welcome to breaking the set today is a very special anniversary one year ago today the u.s. government announced an official and the mission in iraq here's a clip to jog your memory. so as your commander in chief and on behalf of a grateful make i'm proud to finally say these two words and i know your families agree welcome home. ok so what is the u.s. military doing today to commemorate this stork event. to patriot batteries. here to turkey here along with the crips that are necessary

to man those batteries. so that we can help turkey. have the car in a missile defense it may very well be. in dealing with threats that come out of syria. really saying four hundred u.s. troops to the turkey syria border this movie looks all too familiar to me but i guess that's why i'm breaking the set. of the regime anything like that. you might have missed this in the days following the thanksgiving holiday but president obama signed a piece of whistleblower legislation that affords greater protection to federal employees who expose fraud waste and abuse and government operations but the bill is a far cry from the reality on the ground because to date obama has charged.
